Background Leptospirosis is the most widespread zoonotic disease in the world. In India, it is endemic in coast lined states. Renal failure is a severe complication with mortality approaching 22%, early recognition of which helps clinicians in acting fast. This study aimed to investigate the predictors of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in Leptospirosis Methods This is a prospective, case–control study done in a tertiary care center in Southern India carried out between October 2017 and December 2018. Patients with confirmed Leptospirosis as per CDC 2013 and Faine’s criteria (2012) having AKI as per KDIGO criteria were defined as cases. Subjects without AKI were controls. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were compared between the groups and analyzed. Logistic regression was performed to analyze the possible risk factors associated with AKI in Leptospirosis. Results A total of 329 subjects met the inclusion criteria of the study. 187 patients with AKI (CASES) and 142 patients without AKI (CONTROLS) were studied. Patients with AKI were older, (mean age- 46.99 ± 13.21 vs. 42.99 ± 15.15 years) had longer hospital stay (9.04 ± 5.62 vs. 6.27 ± 3.27 days) had higher SOFA (7.97 ±2.9 vs. 3.37 ± 2.6) and APACHE 2 scores (14.37±5.93 vs. 4.66 ± 4.4), lower mean arterial pressure (84.01 ± 14.45 vs. 89.01 ± 10.63 mmHg; P = 0.001) lower serum bicarbonate level (21.70 ± 2.35 vs. 18.73 ± 3.78 mEq/dL; P &lt; 0.001). Factors like serum lactate, AST, ALT had no significant difference between the groups. Serovar identification was done in 88 patients, of which 57 had AKI. Australis (16.7%), Pyrogenes (16.7%) and Grippotyphosa (11.1%) were the commonest serovars isolated. Serovar most commonly associated with AKI was Pyrogenes (17.5%) Predictors for AKI were jaundice (P = 0.01, OR 2.25; CI 1.21 –3.26), vomiting (P = 0.017, OR 1.9, CI 1.12- 3.26) Hypotension (P = 0.02, OR = 12.3, CI 1.85 – 107.2), tachypnea (P = 0.006, OR = 2.55, CI 1.11- 3.24), leukocytosis (P &lt; 0.001, OR 5.45, CI 1.86- 4.89), thrombocytopenia (P &lt; 0.001, OR 6.49, CI 2.33 – 6.75) Conclusion Identification of features like hypotension, tachypnea, acidosis, leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, the occurrence of serovar Pyrogenes should alert the clinician on risk of developing AKI Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.
